Tapper said he’s been looking to replace the old GPS systems with new ones and decided on Digital Caddies. The golf course, on Jog Road between Hypoluxo Road and Gateway Boulevard, rolled out its new Yamaha golf carts in December. Since then, golfers have been eager to have new GPS tablets.

The tablets — about six inches in width and in height — attach to the carts and provide the GPS function as well as messaging to the club house. It provides the golf course pace of play information and gives the golfer yardage information on each hole, helping the golfer decide which club to use.

“It’s a good feature that golfers kind of expect now,” said regional sales executive Kenny Frank.

The PGA National courses in Palm Beach Gardens have signed with the company and might get their tablets even before Boynton. Madison Green Golf Club in Royal Palm Beach and Villa Del Ray in suburban Delray Beach already have the tablets.

Frank says the company is the first of its kind to provide the tablets to courses for free. They can provide the product without a cost because of revenue they receive from advertising on the tablet itself. The tablets the course previously had cost $6,000 a year, according to city documents.

“The systems out there are expensive and eliminate many courses from being able to pay for them,” Frank said. “We’re hoping to make this service available to a whole slew of courses.”

The company hopes to expand the system to scorekeeping, beverage order and maybe some music or video functions.

Tapper said there isn’t an exact installation date, but he has told golfers its coming soon. He thinks more golfers will come to the course knowing it has new technology.

“The wait will be worth it as soon as they get on there,” Tapper said. “They’ll enjoy it once they see it.”
